It was a long, tiring battle but she found the right medication and finally has her RA under control. She is now in her twenties and living it up in New York. After graduating from UC Santa Cruz in 2018 with a Bachelors in Psychology, she started a career as a Business Development Manager for a great tech company in Manhattan.
